General Maximus

 General Maximus 

The next off the table is 28mm General Maximus from Warlord Games. Again quite an easy paint job, the horse is a superb sculpt, the miniature though is on the short side. Again the miniature is for a commission and was a entry in the analogue painting challenge

Imperial Roman Scorpions

 Imperial Roman Scorpion Artillery 

Next Roman pieces off the desk are some scorpions, the miniatures are from the Warlord Range, they are from the plastic range. They do paint up quite well, but the arms poses are a little heroic and the fit not great.

Another entry for the Analogue Painting Challenge, a lovely sculpt from Foundry miniatures, enjoyed painting him.

Roman Siege Artillery

 Imperial Roman Siege Artillery


Off the desk last week two pieces of Roman siege artillery from Warlord Games, they go together nicely but would have liked more crew figures. These are commission figures for my mates army. I have a pair coming up for my army also. 

The Ballista is a superb model, just ensure that you face the twisted rope inwards (I made the mistake of placing it the wrong way around the first time) I drilled out a hole to string it, added plastic warlord stakes, the feet are a little small though in my opinion and so easily topple if it is not glued down properly. . 

The Onager is a nice model but is a bit of trouble to put together, take your time and make sure it is square, I used super glue on one side, then long drying glue to ensure it was straight . I went with the traditional red as requested for the tunics.
